Together we can.

    Saving the world ONE CHILD AT A TIME!

S.E.T. Community Youth Center, Inc is being established to provide mentoring for disadvantaged and at-risk middle and high school youth in the Greater Kansas City Kansas area. The program will create partnerships with the local school districts, other agencies, with a focus on disadvantaged and at-risk youth, and the juvenile court system. S.E.T. Community Youth Center, Inc matches a caring adult volunteer with a referred youth 

Through repeated failures in the classroom and the development of destructive habits, at-risk young people have lost faith in the possibilities that await them if they are successful in putting their lives together. To accomplish this goal, young people must be in a caring, inclusive learning environment that promotes their best effort and reinforces personal respect. 

S.E.T. Community Youth Center, Inc will focus primarily on middle school youths. It is projected that within three years, 50% of the system's students will be in middle school. This age group is particularly problematic and a perfect time for mentoring to be effective. 

   The vision of S.E.T. is to be the place where youths and young adults, alike, learn to become financially independent, socially adept and skilled individuals, capable of and willing to pass on their knowledge too others and to share through giving. Thereby making the world a better place.

S.E.T Community Youth Center, Inc's goal is to foster a commitment to young people that will promote life skills, pro- social friendships, strong interpersonal and financial skills, and reassert a sense of hope in the future. Only through personal relationships can a sense of individual responsibility be reestablished that will give youth the commitment to follow through on a path to adulthood with a sense of pride and accomplishment. 

The mission of S.E.T. Community Youth Center, Inc is the pursuit of the following principles:
